    Nice! Fantastic trick, the wood spacer for the 3/8 or 1/2 J channel works great on my old Tapco, very replicable

    damn I'm so used to .060" aluminum and .020" stainless... those bends look so easy!

    Good stuff. I have also used scrap aluminum under the metal i need the narrow bend on. So the hinge has something to contact, and bends the piece i need bent

    The wood bit is a good idea. I always struggled getting small bends like that.

    I bought a stortz perfect bender and it can pretty much bend anything a standard brake cannot.

    Hi Martin, I don't think you'd be able to bend a 3/8'' ''tall'' J-trim with the Stortz Perfect bender unless i'm missing something? it's also much more time consuming to roll the full length than bending on a brake if you can get the full length to fit your brake!

    Perfect bender can make a standing seam panel easily.

    @@martinsanders4087 Can you make the female leg of the standing seam panel 1" height 1/2" top & 1/2" folding leg? and it'll work with standard stainless slider clips? I tried to build my own version of the Perfect Bender but I was having a lot of trouble keeping the rollers perfectly placed on my .060" 3003h14 aluminum coil

    How consistent can you make that J-channel using the wood? It looks great for a one-off, but I don't know about making lots of it unless there was a really good reason.

    Super consistant with the wood piece as it acts as a stopper... if you but against the wood accurately you'll be bang on everytime. The wood prevents any slippage and guarantee accuracy/consistency which you wouldnt have the guarantee of no slippage any other way....

    For sure! But there's no waste with the piece of wood and if you want to reduce it down to 3/8" for example you'll need 8+ layers of aluminum!
